This special edition of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone has a gorgeous new cover illustration by Kazu Kibuishi. Inside is the full text of the original novel, with decorations by Mary GrandPré.
Harry Potter has never been the star of a Quidditch team, scoring points while riding a broom far above the ground. He knows no spells, has never helped to hatch a dragon, and has never worn a cloak of invisibility.
All he knows is a miserable life with the Dursleys, his horrible aunt and uncle, and their abominable son, Dudley — a great big swollen spoiled bully. Harry’s room is a tiny closet at the foot of the stairs, and he hasn’t had a birthday party in eleven years.
But all that is about to change when a mysterious letter arrives by owl messenger: a letter with an invitation to an incredible place that Harry — and anyone who reads about him — will find unforgettable.
For it’s there that he finds not only friends, aerial sports, and magic in everything from classes to meals, but a great destiny that’s been waiting for him… if Harry can survive the encounter.

This is an entertaining book about a boy who finds out that he is really a wizard and that has to go to a special school called Hogwarts where everyone is trained wizardry and witchcraft. Read this book to find out about all of his exciting adventures.
This is my second favorite Harry Potter book. My favorite is Goblet of Fire. I love when Harry, Ron and Hermione play the wizard's chess game. There is so much action and adventure in this book it was hard to put it down!
Harry Potter is a regular boy or so he thought. When the gamekeeper Hagrid from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardly comes to a small hut where the Dursleys are staying Harry's in for the shock of his life. Hagrid tells him he's a wizard. Now he must find against Voldemort, the person who killed his parents. Harry has to fight him to destroy the thing he's after the Sorcerer's Stone
Here we have a typical teenage boy named Harry, he was an unusual boy but did not know he had magic in him. Now a few months past and he has friends, he now knows sorcery, and he attends the famous school: Hogwarts. Now you can tell Harry is an unusual boy for sure. This story caught my attention for sure, actually the whole series. I would recommend this book because the book feels like it is right in front of you. I also really enjoyed the author's transitions used during the story. The book may look long, but it isn't when you start reading. Especially if you hear this saying, "Don't judge a book by a cover," and that's for sure.
Awesome
The stories with magic amazing book

Harry Potter dicovers that he is a wizard, and he goes to a wizarding schol called hogwarts. he makes new friends and also finds the sorcerer's stone which he kept away from the murderer that killed his parents. Its a great book!
